Chapter 1 - Prologue

Ryota Takahashi had always felt like an outsider. Even as a child, he struggled to connect with others and make friends. But it was in middle school that things really took a turn for the worse.

Every day, Ryota was bullied by his classmates. They teased him about his long, unkempt hair, his quiet demeanor, and his tendency to keep to himself. They called him a loser, a freak, and a waste of space. Day after day, the taunts and insults piled up, until Ryota felt like he was drowning in a sea of negativity.

As he entered high school, Ryota's hair grew even longer and more unruly. He stopped caring about his appearance and withdrew even further into himself. His classmates whispered about him behind his back, calling him depressed and worthless. Even his own family seemed to treat him like a ghost, barely acknowledging his presence at home.

It was on the rooftop of the school that Ryota found himself one day, gazing out at the city skyline below. He had been feeling increasingly isolated and hopeless, and the thought of jumping off the roof and ending it all seemed almost comforting. But just as he was about to take that final step, he was interrupted by a voice.

It was Yui Nakamura, one of the most popular girls in the school. She had always teased Ryota, calling him names and making fun of him in front of their classmates. But as they talked on the rooftop that day, Ryota began to see a different side of Yui. He sensed that she too was struggling with her own demons, and that perhaps they weren't so different after all.

For Ryota, that conversation on the rooftop was a turning point. It gave him hope that maybe, just maybe, there was a way out of the darkness he had been living in. And it was that glimmer of hope that would eventually lead him on a journey of self-discovery, as he searched for his own voice and fought to overcome the demons of his past.
